Inter current position in the Italian league competition table and champions league competition show that they are well prepared to try their luck in the two tournament but it will definitely win one of this title. If Inter players can come together to battle with their opponents to take charge of those positions show that they will not allow injury to hold any of their players than to apply tactics in their remaining matches. I think, Inter will be the favourable team in this season  to embrace the title if they can improve in their remaining matches so that what happened last match will not happen again.

Hopefully they would do all they can to avoid much injuries, the absence of Martinez has also it's minor effects on the club since he is the main man leading the charts for the highest goals scored fir now. They're to still play at home when they come back. The first half should be tough but not too much to see them draw.
They're favorites even though they have just dropped them some points in the standing.

Juventus are chasing tightly, two points behind league leaders and they still have more game's to play. They should make sure they sign some players, the players within are good but not so good to win.

Milan last 4 matches is magnificent, they are showing good form but they didn't start well and apparently, they conceded a lot of goals and that'd why they were able to loss 4 matches and Inter and Juventus loss only 1 one games do far, this is how they were able to stay on top of the tree. The only way Milan can meet up right now is if they don't lose any match from here and perhaps Inter and Milan lose like 3 matches in a row then they will come close and the margin in their points will be settled but the season is just half way, we have another long days to see how the season unfold.

I'm concerned about Napoli growth, the beginning was bad but towards half way they became the face of Seria only to start losing match in the half of the season. They are doing bad to be honest and for a team that came first  in Seria A after many years to be sitting way below Roma says how bad the team has become. Walter Mazzari need new men and strategies as a new coach to take them back else they lose the chance of going the Champions League next season.
Milan performance in their last 4 Serie A matches was showing good form? they lost against Atalanta and failed to get three points vs Salernitana. I think Milan must be able to improve again to show an impressive performance, because the second half of this season is still a lot of game and if Milan can't get many points, I'm afraid Fiorentina can take over Milan position.

Indeed, I'm also concerned. Because recently Napoli performance has been really bad, in their last five Serie A matches Napoli could only secure 4 points. Mazzarri job is not easy there, he has to find the right tactics for the Napoli squad. Recruiting new players to make his job easier might be very appropriate, fortunately the winter transfer window will opened tomorrow and Napoli must buy some players which are Mazzarri needed.

Milan flopped at some point, I was thinking they'll want to get the current manager sacked since he got dumped out of the Champions League group stage just like it was for them last season.
We all shall monitor of he successfully lead them well in the European Europa League Competition. But in the league, it feels like a safe passage for them into the next Champions League.

I didn't follow Fiorentina very well, they're not amongst the clubs I fan in Italian Seria A. Disappointed with Atalanta though because I believe they can do better.

For Juventus, Props to to them, they're doing what's meant to be done. I hope they get to finalize the signature of Kalvin Philips from Manchester City they need that additional players in midfied and attack who can convert chances for em.
We have currently only two clubs those are doing good performance with consistency and also having fair chance for staying at the top until end of this season with AC Milan is also good but not consistent which is also important for the top teams with few others are already losing their points consistently, and we can't predict about them with who could be in line for the last spot even few are going good but as mentioned consistency is key which is not available in rest of the Italian teams in this season.

Atlanta and Fiorentina both are mostly lost their control near the end of the season with they are having problems and also not able to do improvement Napoli and Roma are also having not good time and things are looking complicated for the rest of the season for them and how to manage their performance for having better spots until end of this season.
The Serie A is unsure but Inter Milan's resilience has saved them. They've preserved their form and led the race. But, and this is crucial, they're not done. Juventus is behind them, ready to take the lead like a suspense thriller. Im skeptical of AC Milan. Though good, they lack the rhythm top teams need. They seem to continually be on the brink, attempting to stay in the top four.

Roma and Napoli seem to be in their own bubble, failing to progress. They're always trying to catch up but never quite getting there. Its disappointing given their potential. Fiorentina and Bologna are dark horses, never exactly at the top but always challenging the leaders. This season is like a rollercoaster, and Im sitting here with my popcorn, excited to see who will land where.

Against Salernitana it shouldn't be a difficult opponent for Juventus. The most important thing is that Juventus must not underestimate their opponents. They must always treat every match as an important match like against other strong teams. Because most strong teams always lose to weak teams because they underestimate their opponents.
Salernitana will meet Juventus in two events at once, the Italian league and the Italian Cup in the next few days, I know Salernitana is at the bottom of the Italian league so it is not a club that poses a serious threat to Juventus, but with a short time gap between the two matches, Allegri has to organize and rotate the players so they don't feel tired due to this busy schedule. At least the Juventus players are in good form.

Victory is of course Juventus' main goal, especially in the Italian league, they have to catch up with Inter Milan, that's why they have to be able to take advantage and wait for Inter Milan to make another mistake so that Juventus can overtake them at the top of the standings and win the title this season. that's what all Juventus supporters might hope for. My prediction is that Juventus will win the match against Salernitana
On paper, Salernitana are not a big threat to Juventus, they are at the bottom of the table right now. Although they can win their last match, it is nothing compared to Juventus. Juventus should be able to win this match without encountering serious difficulties, unless they don't play well or they have a big misfortune that will make them possibly achieve an unsatisfactory result.
 They have managed to cut the gap with Inter Milan in the standings and that is good news for them, so they should be able to maintain what they have shown so far.
Their chances of becoming the best in Serie A again are wide open this season, especially since they also have the advantage of not having a busy schedule, and in terms of fitness they will definitely benefit. 2 points is their gap with Inter Milan in the table, I feel they will be able to coup Inter Milan in the future.
Juventus were able to beat Roma without difficulties, although they scored only one goal. I think that Salernitana will not create any problems for Juventus to win again. I don't know what has to happen for Salernitana to prevent Juventus from getting the three points.

Salernitana this year is really weak and the fact that Inter drew with Genoa was a great incentive for Juventus to win against Roma without much problems.Now they are still 2 points behind but they would have been 4 if Inter had won against Genoa so their incentive is really strong as they need to keep winning every single game while hoping for Inter to make some false steps in the encounters they have.There is only half of the Serie A left to play and the amount of games will only shrink the more we advance so Juventus needs to keep their performance high if they want to have a real go to win the Serie A this year.

AC Milan will probably just struggle to keep themselves in the top 4 and compete with Fiorentina and Bologna for a while. Meanwhile, Roma and Napoli will still be busy getting closer to the top 4 rankings.
That's right, AC Milan may currently making 3rd place as their target this season, even though Milan has the potential to become champion, but with the point difference with Inter & Juventus it seems difficult to overcome. This possibility does exist, but Milan's inconsistent performance could making AC Milan cannot stay in 3rd place or be able to compete for the Scudetto. The most important thing is how Pioli maximizes all the matches he will face in the second half of the season. 3rd position will be the best position for Milan. IMO.

As long as milan can still qualify for the UCL and that's enough. Even juventus was not putting very big target for this season. According to allegri and he said that if being qualified for UCL will be good enough for the club. There's no need to call juventus as strong contender to win serie a this season. It's caused by intermilan is still far stronger compared to the juventus. Acmilan needs to lowering its target caused by it must also realize with how strong the club is right now. Acmilan has been declining so hard since some players were missing the games due to the injury.

It will be another non sense target if imlan tries to aim for scudetto this season. The current performance of acmilan is the worst compared to the last season. Im waiting for what movement is going to be made by him.

I can't even see acmilan to keep play like shit in upcoming game. I don't know what's wrong with milan these days. It was showing awful performance. Many people claimed milan to be the best at the early season but it's all wrong.
Intermiland and juventus are not cooking the competition. These clubs are obviously dominating the serie a. Acmilan is still far compared with its main competitor intermilan.

The only one who can compete with Inter Milan at the moment is Juventus.
Juventus needs to wait for Inter Milan to make a mistake in one of their matches to lose points. When that happens, Juventus will be on top with a difference of 1 point.
Draw in match 18 vs Genoa, while Juventus won against AS Roma so that Juventus' distance from them is getting closer.

Inter Milan will be disturbed if Juventus continues to be behind them at a close distance.

The Juventus squad is also not that bad when compared to the Inter Milan team with the players they have.
Until the first half of this season ended, Juventus was the only team capable of providing competition at the top of the standings compared to Milan and Fiorentina. The difference in points between Juventus and Inter is not far apart, a sign that their performance is very good to fight for the title until the end of the season. For the time being, Milan and Fiorentina have a bigger gap with Inter and Juventus, this gives a good sense of security for Juventus and Inter in the title race.

Milan and Fiorentina still have the opportunity to narrow the points gap and compete for the title this season. Of course, this is not an easy task as long as Juventus and Inter are able to maintain their good performance, but this is also not something impossible when Juventus and Inter fail to take advantage of several matches to gain maximum points in the second half of the season.
Until now, only Juventus and Inter Milan have tried hard to win the title and remained consistent until the first half of this season, other clubs such as Milan, Napoli, Fiorentina are not as consistent as Inter Milan and Juventus so the competition in the Serie A league is only focused between the two clubs. Moreover, the difference in points between Inter Milan and Juventus is only a small difference. Apart from that, there is nothing that is causing too much pressure between the two top clubs, Juventus and Inter Milan, so we will see the battle between Inter Milan and Juventus at the end of the season, which club will be successful? maintain consistency.

I'm not too sure about Fiorentina and Milan whether they can compete with Juventus and Inter Milan in the hunt for the title with their condition not being very stable. I think Milan will be ranked 3rd this season and Fiorentina, Bologna and Napoli will compete closely in the rankings 4.

You are right and I always like how clubs in Serie A play defensive ball and they are known as a team that is quite strong in defense. Ball possession at 58% is something new that I have seen because when Jose Mourinho faces a team that is much stronger he will usually try to defend fully and rely on counter attacks to steal goals from his opponent.

Massimiliano Allegri had beaten Mourinho tactically. Both teams had played defensively but Juventus had more shots than Roma which shows how good Allegri was in this match with his tactics. Mourinho on the other hand was on the backfoot the whole match despite having all the possessions.


~snip~
Juventus won a lot in that match and I think the effectiveness of the strategy implemented by the coach worked quite well. They let AS Roma have the ball but never let it get into the penalty box area. This is a fairly even match and I think Juventus is getting stronger with the strength they have at the moment. Inter Milan needs to be wary of Juventus because they have more time to prepare everything to win the Scudetto this season.

With this victory, Juventus lessened the point gap between them and Inter Milan to 2 points. Inter Milan should be concerned right now. They have a very busy schedule coming up in February due to the Uefa Champions League matches. They should have been trying to increase the gap between them and Juventus but they just dropped points against Genoa Yesterday. With this busy schedule, I don't think they can keep up. They have their match against Juventus in the first week of February and then playoff matches against Atletico in the UEFA Champions League. They need to make sure they win these 2 matches to keep going. If Juventus wins, they will have a lead over Inter Milan.

Champions League is a very attractive tournament for all clubs in Europe. They all want to win it if have big chance to do this and we know Inter Milan just had a Champions League final last season. They failed so they are very hurry and want to have a second Champions League final and win it this time. It is like a honey pot for Inter Milan but beyond that they want to reclaim their Scudetto after losing it to AC Milan then Napoli in two latest seasons.

I agree that playing at two big competitions contain risk of exhaustion for their players. Their coach  Simeone Inzaghi must be very cleverly prepared his plans to use players alternatively in order to avoid injuries in later months of season if Inter Milan go far in Champions League. If they can avoid injuries on their players, reduce their exhaustion physically, Inter Milan will be able to perform well in both competitions.

No last year the biggest problem was mostly because they got this penalty where it was decided that 10 points get deducted at the end of the season and that cost them the Champions League qualification as otherwise they would have finished the season with 72 points ahead of AC Milan (70 points). This changed a lot for them as they missed all UEFA competitions, but maybe it was the right time for them to receive a harsh penalty because they could have dug their hole even deeper and risk a harsher penalty.

Even though if juventus would not get a penalty last season and it would still be banned from UEFA champion league if it was qualified. It's nothing to lose for juventus caused by it has completed to receive all the sanctions from FSG and UEFA. It's time for juventus to go back again in the UCL.
There will be no burden anymore for juventus to play in the UEFA champion league next season coz it has removed all of the potential sanctions. I can see how juventus played even more freely without any burden like last season.

Allegri is currently directing his attention towards securing a UCL spot for Juventus; however, there is also a possibility that we will witness Juventus clinch the Serie A trophy this season. Juventus can now breathe a sigh of relief as they will no longer face severe penalties, which is a huge relief for the club considering the various sanctions they received last season. The club has definitely learned from its past mistakes and is determined to avoid any further shady incidents. All of my appreciations for allegri coz he was staying instead of leaving.

Oh you are correct, I missed that and thought they would only lose 10 points and have to pay a fine. But this is what onefootball reported:

"After being found guilty of Financial Fair Play breaches as well as club licensing breaches, Serie A giant, Juventus, have been handed a one-year ban from European competition by UEFA."

Ok so from that point of view it didn't really matter how they finished last season. I thought they would have qualified with those 10 additional points, but then there was less to regrest for them as it wouldn't have made any difference.

After the previous match, Atalanta lost against Bologna, but that didn't make them give up and immediately came back to win and they did that when they hosted Lecce last weekend. Atalanta achieved a narrow victory after beating Lecce with a narrow score of 1-0 and making them continue to overshadow Bologna with a difference of 3 points. Again, Ademola Lookman is the key player who brought Atalanta to 3 points at home and so far the second striker from Nigeria has contributed 7 goals for Atalanta.

Well, for Lecce, they ended up continuing to experience decline in every match, even though at the start of this season they were at the top but again as a weak team they returned to their original habitat at the bottom. In the last 5 matches, Lecce only got one win and that was clearly a bad result for them and made it even easier to go down if they continued to lose in the next match.

Previously we predict that Napoli will be the main competitor to win the scudetto but a few weeks after the new season began we saw Juventus and Inter Milan who would fight each other and that continues to this day so I agree that Milan and Fiorentina are excluded in the race. We know that at this time Inter Milan is more favored to win the trophy because they have the ability in attack and defense the only obstacle to Inter Milan is a busy schedule this has an impact on the condition of the players fatigue and injury will be the main risk. I think the coach should find a solution in the near future before all competitions start.
The competition for the scudetto has taken an unexpected turn with Juventus and Inter Milan emerging as strong contenders. The busy schedule poses a challenge for Inter Milan, considering the potential risks of player fatigue and injuries.

What do you think should be the coach's strategy to address these concerns and ensure a successful campaign for Inter Milan?
How do you see Napoli bouncing back in the race, and are there any other teams that might surprise us in the upcoming matches?

Inter Milan are looking to do well in the Champions League and Serie A as well. And in these two competitive leagues, it is difficult to maintain consistent good performances. Inter Milan have a very busy schedule ahead. And this will increase the injury proneness of the players. If an important player of the team suffers an injury, its impact will definitely be seen in the overall performance of the team. On the other hand, Inter Milan's main rivals for the Serie A title, Juventus, are aiming for the Serie A title. They are not playing in Champions League or Europa League. So it will be relatively easy for Juventus to maintain the consistency of performance. Before each match they will have enough time to strategize.

Juventus has got the time advantage over Inter Milan but currently inter Milan has a few time before the UCL round of sixteen kicks off so just before then they can be able to accumulate some good points so as to keep them ahead even if the have some slacks later on, I think they have a fixture in the serie A before their UCL fixture, a win in that game will keep them 3 points ahead.

Inter Milan will have to cease every opportunity .Ade available to them if they must be able to maintain a good form in the serie A and the UCL if not they are obviously going to loose out in one, somehow I tend not to see great potential for inter Milan at The UCL , tho they have some level of experience but then it will only make sense if they can go beyond the quarter finals, until then they should consider the serie A seriously els they will be displaced by Juventus and may not be able to recover from it. Balancing their performance in both competition is something they will have to work on and it can only be possible if they stay ahead in the serie A and apply some rotation thereafter.

Several big teams in the previous season experienced quite drastic setbacks for them this season, such as Lazio and Napoli, so it is quite natural that we see competition at the top of the standings being filled again by big teams such as Inter milan and Juventus. Even for Inter milan, they have been sitting at the top of the standing for a long time because no other team apart from juventus has put pressure on them. Inter milan this season has a strong squad and is ready to win the title.
The squad owned by Inter Milan has indeed looked quite good this season after being polished well by their current coach, but on the other hand I also like Juventus because they are able to create extraordinary pressure at the top of the standings in order to catch Inter Milan. I'm starting to believe that Inter Milan can win this season in Serie A, but on the one hand I also don't doubt Juventus' efforts to make Inter Milan fail to win Serie A this season. Because Juventus has also looked strong since last season and continues to do so this season.

Inter Milan glory is increasingly visible when they have returned to their best era after Simone inzaghi became their coach. Inzaghi succeeded in developing his players to find their best form, such as Martinez and Thuram. So, if Inter milan succeeds in becoming champions this season, of course we have seen in the previous few seasons that Serie A always takes turns for each team to become champions.
Inter Milan only hopes that their players will not suffer injuries so that Inter Milan can advance smoothly in Serie A and occupy the top ranking. Because now Juventus is also approaching Inter Milan's points again so it has the possibility to overtake Inter Milan if Inter Milan experiences bad things in the upcoming matches.

Before the start of this season there were too many hopes for the Napoli that have enough strength and quality to handle this all, and they will be defended their title but sadly due to internal issues now they are out of the title race with having no chance for the jumping into top four as well their performance is currently at the lowest level, and they are also having wired difficulties as well which are preventing them from scoring goals even against weaker sides we have only 1 goal from them in last five games.

Juventus and Inter Milan both are hot favourites for the title with Inter Milan is having much better and strong squad which is giving his best and their defense is also best which is not allowing opponents to have anything positive Juventus is also strong enough, but sadly they are not able to score goals as they needed and also important for the titles but still their tactics are giving them good results, and they have good chance for the win.

Inter Milan and Juventus likely close with Scudetto in this season behind both teams remaining two points left with Inter Milan manage top position awhile, failing to get three points in the match against Genoa meant that Juventus put it to good use when they managed to beat AS Roma and pressure Inter Milan on top position behind three points left.
Currently with 20 matches left in domestic league not only Juventus or Inter Milan are the top race for winning Scudetto in this season but also AC Milan likely still have the opportunity for getting domestic league tittle in this season.
More interested if Scudetto fight by third team or more because most compete until end the matchday, hope with AC Milan and Napoli can return to their top level performance and make Scudetto not dominance by Inter Milan or Juventus only.
I might be more confident that Inter Milan will be champions this season. If you compare the quality of the two teams, of course Inter Milan is still quite strong compared to Juventus because Inter Milan has quite good quality players in every line. But Juventus is not like that, they have a little problem on their front line because their attackers this season are not very productive in scoring goals. In this transfer window, Juventus are moving quite actively because they have been linked with several players they will be targeting, such as Kalvin Phillips.

AC milan also managed to close the points gap with juventus or Inter milan in the previous week because of their success in beating Sassuolo in the home match. If you think about it, Pioli must be able to bring back to back wins for AC milan if he wants to disrupt Inter milan at the top of the standing. There is still time for pioli to bring change to ac milan and i hope management doesn't fire him.

As I have always said, Serie A is a super defensive league and not many goals happen here and when it's between two big teams and no one is clearly dominating, the score remains very low on goals. But I have the same thoughts as you. Mourinho's management actually did surprise me. He is basically known for his park the bus mentality but yesterday he had 58% possession.
You are right and I always like how clubs in Serie A play defensive ball and they are known as a team that is quite strong in defense. Ball possession at 58% is something new that I have seen because when Jose Mourinho faces a team that is much stronger he will usually try to defend fully and rely on counter attacks to steal goals from his opponent.

But possession does not matter when you can't create chances, get shots on target, and all that. Juventus had more shots, shots on target despite having less possession. Either way, they have won the match and got the 3 points so it does not really matter how they got them. Roma's defeat put them on the back foot in the top 4 race. On the other hand, Juventus got closer to Inter Milan after beating Roma as Inter Milan drew against Genoa last night.
Juventus won a lot in that match and I think the effectiveness of the strategy implemented by the coach worked quite well. They let AS Roma have the ball but never let it get into the penalty box area. This is a fairly even match and I think Juventus is getting stronger with the strength they have at the moment. Inter Milan needs to be wary of Juventus because they have more time to prepare everything to win the Scudetto this season.
